GUEY OF BOSTON 


OFFICE OF THE MAYOR 
CLEY WALL 


JOHN F. COLLINS 
Mayor 


February 6, 1967. 
To the City Council. 


GENTLEMEN: 


I am submitting herewith the budget allowances for City, County, and Income Departments for 
the year 1967, which total in the aggregate $183,300,547. 


The above figure represents an increase over 1966 appropriations of $16,991,394.50, or less than 
10.22 percent. ‘This increase compares favorably with the state budget submitted recently which 
indicates a 14.82 percent increase for fiscal 1967-68. 


A further analysis of percentage increases on state and local levels produced the remarkable 
differences that while the state budget has increased 84.36 percent since 1959, the City of Boston 
budget has risen only 45.11 percent. 


In the event Boston’s expenditures had kept pace with state spending I would be presenting to 
you today a budget not of $183.3 million but a budget in excess of $232.8 million, or close to $50 million 


_ higher, which would increase the tax rate by approximately $35. 


Original budget requests by Department Heads amounted to $190.124,368, which did not contain 
additional requests of over $6 million for equipment. Thus the final allowances recommended by me to 
your Honorable Body have been pared $6,823,821. 


It has become apparent that increased services, to which the taxpayers of Boston are entitled, 
have placed an almost unbearable burden upon the existing equipment of the various city departments. 


I therefore felt it imperative not only to carry out the normal replacement of worn and obsolete 
apparatus, but to implement the existing departmental equipment with additional and also new types 
of modern tools to more efficiently perform the functional services we need to move forward as a progres- 
Sive city. 


I have, therefore, presented to your Honorable Body, just one week ago, a request for authority 
to borrow five million dollars for this purpose. 


There is no doubt in the minds of all of us that crime is our constant enemy, not only in our 
local community, but also on a national scale, although the crime rate did decrease slightly in Boston 
in 1966. 


I have, therefore, taken steps to raise the living standards and working conditions of our law 


enforcement agency. I have further concurred in recommendations of our responsible police officials 


by allowing the full sum of money requested by them in their operating budget, plus all requests for 
equipment, totaling $418,540, which includes not only automotive and communication but also an 
additional police boat. 


Beyond this I have further authorized the expenditure of $250,000 in the capital budget for a 
completely modern communication system which will permit a more expeditious and efficient evaluation 
of police activities. 


I also am pleased to report to you that the modernization of Boston City Hospital is making 
excellent progress, and that once again appropriations for the Department of Health and Hospitals have 
been increased. 


(ix) 


An increase of four and a half million dollars in the department’s budget is being referred to you 
today, 50 percent of which is for salary increases and additional staffing for nurses and medical personnel. 


Turning to other matters, once again we are confronted with ever increasing Welfare and 
Veterans’ Services costs. 


This budget contains additional funds in these two departments of $6,220,566.14. The total 
amount we are faced with in 1967 for these activities has reached the astronomical figure of more than 
$49 million. 


It is anticipated that the state will recognize that the problems of our less fortunate citizens 
are no longer the prime responsibility of the local community but the concern of the Commonwealth 
as a whole, and that we can expect positive action by our Legislature this year to have the state assume 
this burden. 


A further consideration by the state should be the assumption of the costs of our county govern- 
ment, which also should be accepted as a benefit to the Commonwealth as a whole and not confined 
to the local boundaries of our county framework. 


The question of collective bargaining creates a delicate situation in requesting funds for the 
calendar year of an operating budget. This budget makes no allowance for any contractual agreements 
which have not been consummated to date, but I wish to express publicly that negotiations which 
subsequently will result in agreement will be funded through supplemental appropriations as deemed 
necessary. 


Boston is faced with two serious financial problems which are presently before our courts. 


The first concerns the withholding of state funds because of the decision by the Commissioner 
of Education, who deemed that the School Committee is not meeting the provisions of the so-called 
Racial Imbalance Law. It is my fervent hope that the members of the School Committee and the 
members of the State Board of Education will resolve this problem in the immediate future for the 
overall benefit of the community and the financial benefit of the city. 


The second court case concerns the legal technicality as to what the true meaning of the Sales 
Tax Law is in respect to the valuation of Boston for distribution of Sales Tax Revenue. The resolu- 
tion of this problem in favor of the city would be a financial gain which is sorely needed at this time. 


There is no question that our tax rate will increase not only because of the legal problems which 
confront us but also due to the spiraling costs of government over and above this budget before you. 


We have done remarkably well during the past seven years in living within our means. The 
year 1967 confronts us with many intangibles, some of which I have enumerated above, and others 
including MBTA assessment and school costs. I can say, however, that every effort will be made 
to hold the inevitable tax rate increase within reason without neglecting the services which I feel 
are not only needed but also are justifiably expected by the residents of the city. 


I respectfully recommend to your Honorable Body adoption of the accompanying appropria- 
tion and tax orders. 


Respectfully, 


(x) 


CITY OF BOSTON 


ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DEPARTMENT 


ROOM 50, CITY HALL 


February 6, 1967. 
Hon. Joun F. Couuins, 
Mayor of Boston. 
DEAR Sir: 

I have prepared, under your direction and after consultation with the Director of Administra- 
tive Services, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3, of Chapter 486 of the Acts of 1909 as 
amended, in segregated form, the annual budget for City, County and Income Departments, for sub- 
mission, by you, to the City Council for the year 1967. 


GENERAL STATEMENT 


The allowances recommended herein reflect an increase over the total appropriations authorized 
in 1966 of $16,991,394.50. The recommendations in the city budget contain funds to implement the 
new departments of Public Facilities and the newly created Interdepartmental Community Conserva- 
tion Committee which will bring about, for the first time, a concentrated code enforcement program 
for several of Boston’s residential neighborhoods and also the new Eastern Regional Library which 
will provide greatly expanded library services to all of eastern Massachusetts. 

Department requests for 1967 amounted to $190,124,368.. After careful scrutinization of the 
individual accounts these recommendations have been reduced to $183,300,547 or a decrease of 
$6,823,821 below the original proposals of the Department Heads. 

A summary of appropriations and allowances for City, County and Income Departments are 
indicated herewith:

The allowances for Income Departments will be met from the revenues collected by these 
departments and will not have any effect on the 1967 tax rate. 
Information pertinent to the 1967 budget is presented herewith: 


CITY BUDGET 


Personal Services: The 1967 allowance reflects a net increase over 1966 of $6,392,811.30. 
During 1966 two appropriations for salary increases for city employees were approved by you. The 
first appropriation of $1,738,152 affected the entire year of 1966 and is incorporated in the 1966 appro- 
priations. The second appropriation in September of 1966 for $1,000,000 was for the last four months 
of the year. The latter raise resulted in this year’s allowance increasing over $2.5 million for permanent 
employees. City Hospital and Health Department represents further increases of more than $2 
million in 1967. These increases were caused by the creation, of new positions in the hospital facility 
of $110,000 not provided for in 1966, nurses’ and doctors’ raises in 1966 for which additional funds of 
$200,000 is required; staffing requirements in 1967 of $900,000; increments during 1967 of $110,000 and 
a second salary increase for nurses effective January 1, 1967 amounting to $686,000. The firefighters 
through collective bargaining reflect salary increases of $775,000 and a reorganization of the Building 
Department resulted in an increase in this department of $130,000, library requirements as a result 
of pay raises increased $200,000. 

Overtime and Temporary help reflect increases due to collective bargaining contracts signed in 
late 1966, Police School Crossing Guards, $70,000; Police Overtime, $660,000 (Court Time); Fire 


Department, $133,000. 
(xi) 


Contractual Services: This account shows a marked increase over 1966 of better than $2.8 
million. Departments which reflect a substantial rise are the Health and Hospital Departments of 
$752,000 for plant improvements; the Public Works Department for a downtown contract for street 
cleaning of $400,000; street lighting and rubbish contracts show normal raises of over $200,000; the © 
Boston Redevelopment Authority for surveys and planning, $400,000; the Auditorium which was 
carried as a special appropriation in 1966 now is segregated for an increase in this account of $268,000; 
Building Department for demolition of unsafe structures, $151,000; Real Property Department for 
repairs and maintenance of our public buildings increased $114,000; while our Police Department re- 
ceived $134,000 above the 1966 appropriation for repairs and maintenance of police buildings and 
miscellaneous contractual services. Other city departments reflected normal increases over previous 
years. 

Supplies and Materials: An increase in this category of $518,000 is attributable to the Health 
and Hospital Departments of $448,000; the Fire Department for automotive and office supplies 
of $22,000; and the Public Library for miscellaneous books and periodicals of $30,000. 

Current Charges and Obligations: This account is up $6.4 million due mainly to the ever- 
rising costs of Welfare and Veterans’ Benefits Relief of over $6.2 million. 

Structures and Improvements: The increase in this item of $420,500, shows in the Hospital 
Department, $275,000; the Park Department of $110,000; and the Public Works Department of 
$24,500. 

Special Appropriations: A net increase in this account can be explained by an allowance to the 
newly formed Public Facilities Department of $520,000; and the Eastern Regional Library of 
$150,000. 

COUNTY BUDGET 


County Budgets show an increase in 1967 of $1,226,000. Personal Services are up almost 
$850,000 due, for the most part, to salary increases to Judges, Clerks of various courts, Probation Officers 
and Court Officers approved by the General Court during 1966 for which funds were not appropriated 
at the time. 

Contractual Services: Appropriations to this category have increased by $370,000; the major 
repairs to the Court House elevators represents $209,000; while Superior Court, Civil Session, 
Clerk’s Office, is up almost $100,000; for the expenditures to Masters and Auditors of $50,000, and 
for Jurors, of $50,000. The Superior Court, Criminal Session, reflects an increase which can be 
charged mainly against jurors, fees and experts employed in the presentation of criminal cases of 
$143,000. ; 

The remaining categories of the County Budget remained fairly constant. 


INCOME BUDGET 


The over-all increase in this budget of $390,116: is shown in Personal Services for $206,650, 
resulting from salary increases; $62,517 in Contractual Services; for Data Processing and Repairs and 
Maintenance of buildings and structures of the Water Division. An increase in Current Charges and 
Obligations of $47,791 is reflected for the major portion of the increase in the Water Division of the 
Public Works Department of $34,464; and under Structures and Improvements an increase of $100,000 
is the result of additional extensions and improvements to water mains. 


CONCLUSION 


The preceding paragraphs summarize, in general, a comparison of the recommended budget 
allowances, for 1967 with the actual appropriations for 1966. 


Respectfully, 


Meng UT enero)

OFFICE OF NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT 
1-01-76 


The deterioration and decay of existing structures, especially dwelling units, in the City of Boston has been of co: 
tinuing concern to those responsible for governing the city. Blight has spread to residential areas which are still consider 
basically sound and desirable. 

The Office of Neighborhood Improvement was organized to prevent the further spread of blight and to eradica 
whatever pockets of blight exist in these areas. In addition, ONI has been charged with the responsibility of giving hom 
owners whatever technical and financial advice is necessary to help them improve their property and their community. 

Among the many factors responsible for blight has been the lack of a systematic dwelling unit to dwelling unit i 
spection of all residential property and a centralized plan to accomplish this mission. Until the organization of this offic 
the responsibility for the correction of poor housing conditions in the improvement areas was given to various separa 
departments with the result that there was little chance to view the problem as a whole and even less chance to attack it o 
all fronts with a continuing and centralized program. 

Another important aspect of the Office of Neighborhood Improvement’s mission is a sustained and continuing pr 
gram of education and persuasion designed to inform and instruct the property owner, first as to his duties and responsibiliti 
concerning his property; second as to the help and assistance available to him through this office for the correction of su 
standard conditions on his property and for whatever improvements are necessary to generally up-grade the neighborhood. 

During the past year an increasing number of community groups have requested assistance from this office. E 
perienced personnel have been assigned to work with them on all problems concerning neighborhood improvements. 

The role of the Office of Neighborhood Improvement as liaison agency between the city and neighborhood groups has 
therefore, been accelerated. 

Early in December, upon request of the Fields Corner Neighborhood Association, this office moved into its thir 
area of operation, the Fields Corner Community (Sub-Area II). 

It is significant, at this time, to point out that more than a half million dollars was voluntarily spent on improvement 
by residential and commercial property owners in the Codman-Peabody Square Area (Sub-Area I).

YOUTH ACTIVITIES COMMISSION 

2 1-13-79 

The Youth Activities Commission, established by the Massachusetts Legislature in 1965 (Chap. 391 of the Acts of 
965), replaces the Advisory Committee of the Youth Activities Bureau which was created in 1960. The Commission is 
posed of seven members, five of whom are appointed by the Mayor of Boston, one by the Superintendent of Schools, 
md one by the members of the Youth Service Board of Massachusetts. The primary purpose of the Commission is to 
ontrol and prevent juvenile delinquency and to prevent school dropouts. 


The programs of the Commission assist school dropouts and others who are unable to satisfy requirements for gain- 
employment. It places youths in trade or commercial courses. It assists in returning students to schools where, in 
peration with the Superintendent of Public Schools, special courses have been arranged to encourage their return. 
Youths have been placed in the Manpower Development Training Act Program, as well as in apprenticeship and other in- 
ervice training programs. Students have been given technical, educational, and financial assistance in obtaining college 
ntrance and in attending preparatory courses necessary for college admission. The program has helped in obtaining 
eaningful full-time employment as well as part-time employment for many students to help them to remain in school. 


Through the Youth Educational Assistance Program, more than $37,000.00 in contributions and scholarships valued 
excess of $40,000.00 have been raised in the past five years, 


All appointments, salary grades, titles, and all expenses must have the approval of the Youth Service Board. One half 
f all expenditures are paid by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts has approved 
tching funds.

PURCHASING DIVISION, ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DEPARTMENT 


1-01-46 


City departments make use collectively of many standard items of office supplies. If purchased from outside suppliers 
s individual departmental requisitions are submitted, the city will pay maximum prices. If, however, the total of annual 
rehases by all departments is calculated and included in a proposal for competitive bids, substantial savings will be 

red. This appropriation will permit the Purchasing Agent to secure, after public advertising, a year’s supply of various 
cm of office supplies and store them in the Printing Section for issuance as individual departmental requisitions are received.

Although the total expenditure for administration and relief will be approximately $80,616,809 a budgetary requ 
of $44,460,409 is made. The difference between the total estimated expenditure and the estimated budgetary requireme 
is explained by the fact that the Department will receive Federal Funds approximating $36,156,400. These funds are r 
ceived as grants in certain assistance categories and fer the administration of Old Age Assistance, Aid to Families wit 
Dependent Children, Disability Assistance, and Medical Assistance. 


In additicn to the Federal grants-in-aid, the City of Boston will receive as general city revenue additional amoun 
as grants from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, in the four programs in which Federal, State and Local governmen 
participate; reimbursement from the Commenwealth for persons receiving General Relief in Boston; and refunds fro 
recipients or their estates. This amount will total $26,916,080; hence the total ccst to the City of Boston will be approx 
mately $17,544,329.

EASTERN REGIONAL LIBRARY SERVICE 
1-10-12 


On Wednesday, October 26, 1966, His Honor Mayor John F. Collins signed a contract establishing the legal a 
operational base for a long-planned Eastern Regional Public Library System. 

The new agency, linking in a cooperative service structure more than 200 public libraries in 180 cities and tow 
in an area extending from the New Hampshire border on the north to Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket 
the south, will raise existing levels of library service for the region’s 3,800,000 people and will bolster radically the over- 
public library resources of the state. The Boston Public Library, with special state support, will play a major role in t 
new regional structure as the Regional Library Center of the system. 

Establishment of the new regional system carried to completion a process of library development which began wi 
the passage in 1960 of legislation granting state aid to public libraries and authorizing the creation of new patterns of ¢ 
operative library service. The regional framework is also in operation in two other sections of Massachusetts — the Weste 
Region, with headquarters in the Springfield Library, and the Central Region, with the Worcester Public Library as t 
regional center. 

Under the agreement, the Boston Public Library, working cooperatively with participating libraries, provides ref 
ence and research service for all residents of the Eastern Region. The plan thus provides for all citizens, regardless of t 
size of the municipality in which they live, equal access to a high level of reference and research service. ‘These servic 
include, initially, the inter-library loan of books from the Boston Public Library’s reference and research collections, t 
inter-library loan of films and recordings, and direct-line telephone reference service. 

For residents of municipalities having a population of 25,000 or less not served at present by existing state-operat 
bookmobiles the Boston Public Library will offer services designed to supplement the ongoing services being rendered 
their city and town libraries. This will include the provision of rotating or deposit collections of books via bookmobi 
service. Sub-regional library centers (Andover, Lowell, Wellesley, Quincy, Taunton, New Bedford and Falmouth) w 
have separate contracts with the Commonwealth and will provide services to public libraries in their surrounding areas. 

Under the provisions of Sections 19 C and 19 D of Chapter 760 of the Acts of 1960 of the Commonwealth of Massach 
setts, $950,000 will be available annually for the full implementation of regional library service for the eastern partof t 
state. Service will be gradually implemented and it is expected that the program will be in full operation by July, 1967. 

Since the program calls for the Commonwealth to reimburse a Revolving Fund such a fund must be establish 
Toward the establishment of this Revolving Fund the Library is transferring the sum of $100,000 from the Personal Servi 
Account in its 1967 Budget. This amount represents reimbursement for library service already rendered to the Regio
